A steaming system is for steaming food. The steaming system including a base component adapted for receiving fluid therein, the base component being adapted to cooperate with a steam generating apparatus configured to heat up said fluid to produce steam. The steaming system also includes at least one steaming component includes a steaming compartment adapted to contain food to be steamed, the at least one steaming component being operatively mounted on the base component and being in fluid communication therewith. The steaming system is operable in a steaming configuration where the components are stacked onto one another to allow circulation of steam from the base component to the steaming compartment. The steaming system is further operable in a storage configuration where the base component is contained within the steaming compartment.

A steam generator is provided. The steam generator may include a steam chamber, a steam heater to supply heat into the steam chamber, a water supply, through which water to generate steam may be supplied into the steam chamber, one or more interference members disposed in the steam chamber to interfere with a flow of the water introduced through the water supply, and at least one discharge to discharge the steam generated in the steam chamber. The one or more interference members may be disposed under the at least one discharge and above the water supply.

The present invention is related to a cooking oven (1) for foodstuffs comprising: —a cooking chamber (2), wherein foodstuffs can be placed for being cooked, having a bottom wall (3) provided with a first cooking chamber outlet (4) positioned in such a way to receive grease collected in the bottom wall (3); —a grease conduit (6) configured for draining grease from the cooking chamber (2); wherein the first cooking chamber outlet (4) is fluidly connected to the grease conduit (6), wherein the cooking oven further comprises: —a heating device (8) configured for heating the internal of the cooking chamber (2), —a vapour outlet duct (9) configured for discharging vapour from the cooking chamber (2), wherein the bottom wall (3) of the cooking chamber (2) is provided with a second cooking chamber outlet (10), distinct from the first cooking chamber outlet (4) and fluidly connected to the vapour outlet duct (9).

A cleaning chemical assembly has a collection container, a pump, two ports for storage containers that contain the same cleaning chemical, and a switchover valve that can be switched between a first state, in which the pump can pump liquid from the collection container to the storage container connected to the first one of the two ports while the second port is disconnected in a liquid-tight manner, and a second state, in which the pump can pump liquid from the collection container to the storage container connected to the second one of the two ports while the first port is disconnected in a liquid-tight manner. A sensor is provided that can be used to detect whether one of the storage containers is empty.
